Snap to scanned data points

Snapping to 3D points is useful for constructing primitives in AutoCAD.

To snap to scanned data points:

1. First activate the appropriate AutoCAD window by clicking in it. Snapping to a point is achieved by first pressing and holding down the Ctrl key and simultaneously moving the mouse over the desired 3D point. When the point is within snapping range, a small blue circle appears.

2. The snapping process is completed by then clicking the left mouse button. As long as the Ctrl key is held down, snapping will continue and in this way, multiple points can be snapped to.

   

All AutoCAD drawing commands may be used with scanned data points by using the snap-to-point feature.
